    We had a wonderful experience! Dean called me beforehand to set everything up, and the boat was just as pictured. Captain Aly was awesome with accommodating our group, which included two small kids. I would highly recommend & would book the same boat next time I’m in the Keys!

    Dean and Whitney were amazing!!!! We had a little storm early in the day and they allowed us to add a couple extra hours without charge. They also were a blast to hangout with, we were all so sad when the day was over. Will 100% use them again next time we come to the Keys!

    We had a wonderful afternoon with Captain Lisa! We enjoyed swimming and snorkeling at Molasses Key and a great tour of the surrounding area. She was so warm and personable and took really good care of us. She made sure to accomodate 2 active young men, 2 middle aged sun worshippers, and an 80 year old that wanted to do everything everyone else was doing! We have every intention of repeating this experience on our next trip to Marathon!

    I cannot speak highly enough of Captain Dean and Captain Scott, I spent the day on the boat snorkeling and hanging out on a sandbar then ended our amazing day with a short tour around Marathon. Captain Scott entertained my two little kids while me and my oldest snorkeled which was great. He was so much more than just a Captain, he allowed for me to enjoy the time and really stepped in and helped. I will definitely be calling them again when I’m in Marathon. Overall amazing day on the water!!!

    Dean was an amazing captain that made sure we got to do exactly what we wanted during our afternoon on his boat. We loved going to anchor at the sandbar and it was so thoughtful that he took us back the long way to allow us to spot some dolphins! The boat was clean and the fresh water shower was a nice touch after swimming in the ocean! Thanks again Dean!

    VERY Late review, but we had an excellent time on Dean’s boat. Our captain took us to a number of great spots to snorkel, explore and just relax. Great experience!

    Boat was good, comfortable and Dean was friendly!
    The 3 of us didn’t get on the water right away as we waited at the marina half hour and then came back half hr early… paying $530 for 3 hours and only getting 2 was not ideal.
    Saw a local manatee and did some cruising.

    We had a great afternoon with Scott. He took us to Pirates Cove where we all got a chance to snorkel and see a few lobsters. Even our dogs had a blast!

    Captain Lisa was great! Our party and dog had an amazing time on the water with her! Lisa and Dean were very accommodating with a morning weather scare. We were able to reschedule to an afternoon trip and it ended up being the highlight of our trip. Would 10/10 recommend booking through Captain Dean and will be booking with them again in the future.
